Technical specifications
editThe trains are built by Nippon Sharyo and Kinki Sharyo, with Toshiba supplying the electrical equipment.[4] They are fitted with permanent magnet synchronous motors and silicon carbide traction inverters, which are expected to reduce the power consumption by about 20%, compared to the Tokyo Metro 02 series currently in service on the Marunouchi Line.[5][6]
Self-steering axles similar to those of the 1000 series are fitted to the bogies.[4]
Formation
editThe trains are formed as six-car sets.[4]
Interior
editThe seating accommodation consists of longitudinal seating.[4] The cars are air conditioned, with feature round windows at the car ends. They also have power outlets for passengers to charge their mobile devices.[7]
